ONLY TWO TYPES OF THEORIES CAN BE ACCEPTABLE Soooooo if we know from the stimulus that Retributivist theories that hold that criminals should receive longer sentences for repeat offenses than for an initial offense violates the principle (harshness of punishment should be proportional to the seriousness of the offense), we can infer that is is acceptable instead to a rehabilitationalist theory since it is the REMAINING AND ONLY OTHER ACCEPTABLE THEORY.
A - WRONG - we dont know the specific content of rehabilitationalist theories
B - WRONG - the stimulus doesnt tell us what is required to reform a repeat offender
C - WRONG - we only know whats necessary, C is giving us the sufficient which we don't know what that is
D - WRONG - again we dont know what is sufficient
E - CORRECT - exactly as explained above, ding ding ding!
Any tips on how to effectively review RC wrong answers?
Am I wrong to assume that just because the company's profit was much smaller this year than it was last year doesn't conclude that profits went down?? It could've still increased just not as much right?
Can someone explain how E is a source attack? I'm not really understanding how E is correct here.
@Lizeth13 The way I saw it was OPA says unlikely and argument says unlikely. Answer choice B says cannot occur and unlikely to occur. Cannot occur and unlikely are not the same so B is wrong
Hello! I'm located in the Richmond, VA area and I'm currently registered for the September LSAT test date. I'm looking to get a score in the 160's and would love a group of people who can hold each other accountable/check-in/discuss any strategies or tips with one another. Feel free to join even if not in RVA!
Hi! Also not in Texas but taking the September LSAT! jennawiese10@gmail.com
@Kg7 I got this right and watched the video because I didn't fully understand why certain answers were wrong. I knew based on process of elimination that E was correct but couldn't exactly explain why the others were totally wrong. So I use it to gain understanding of wrong answers
Can someone provide an example of an answer choice that would strengthen but not be necessary?
How do we know the pool is open before noon? I neglected B because I figured we can't assume the pool opens before then since "some time during each day it is open" doesn't really specify.
I picked E here, wondering why it got eliminated so quickly when its so close to answer choice B. Can someone explain?
Me! Working a 9-5 as a paralegal, also scoring in the 160s :)
